Fleetguard fuel filter FS19821

The fuel filter of Fleetguard cleanses the impurities from the fuel before it enters the combustion engine. This dirt could be water, sand or dust that possibly entered the fuel during a fill up. Without the filter these contaminants can reach the engine unopposed. Replace the fuel filter when the guidelines for the fuel filter FS19821of Fleetguard prescribe a replacement should be done. The parts manual of the machine provides all the information about the right parts, including whether or not the FS19821 fit it.

Replacing the Fleetguard fuel filter

The fuel starts pumping through the system, including the fuel filter, from the moment the engine is started. In the filter there is a purposely designed technique that separates the water and particles from the fuel and catches it in the filter. After a while, the filter will be full of water and particles and this can impact the performance of the engine because the fuel cannot pass through the filter properly. Before the filter is fully clogged it is important to replace it for a new one. The parts manual prescribes where the fuel filter is mounted on the machine. Normally this will be mounted on a convenient place between the engine and the fuel tank. The fuel filter has an inlet for the fuel and an outlet for the cleaned fuel. Make sure you connect the fuel filter in the right way.
